Morning all, just managed to burn 2 hot cross buns whilst having a bit of a catch up on the thread. (Didn't think I'd actually put them under the grill - luckily I have a good sense of smell and smelt them before the smoke alarm went off!) Off to sort some washing....see you later xMammy to 3 gorgeous children.

HHC at 10.30 anyone - I need to move my buttMum to 4 beautiful children

2011 Goals declutter the house :eek: decluttered 42 items :j0 -
And an ex-colleague has just got in touch to arrange to catch up next wednesday evening. Some of you may remember me getting a bit worried about him this time last year... as I wasn't sure about his motives and he's married... but I'm pretty sure it's OK and I do want to catch up. Although he did offer to meet up near home if I was working from home which I'm a bit unsure about. Not that I'd actually let him know where I lived anyway... Why is life so complicated?
At least the laundry is making progress and the DW has been loaded!0 -

be interesting to see what OfSted say about parental involvement/support then. Personally I would be complaining - especially about ringing up and being given the wrong info...Penelope_Penguin wrote: »Nope, just term dates. It's got good results, but the school treats parents with contempt
In DD's frirst year I tried really hard to get involved and offer my help, but they really don't seem to want is anywhere near
When DH finished his 4 year term as parent governor, he didn;t even get a thank you, verbal or written.
Say she who has just phoned school AGAIN to tell them they are sending text alerts re DS to Grandma instead of mum (me)...
at least DS doesn't eat his...Please sit down before reading this post!
